"It's tomato season!"

Ms. Gu, a citizen

I took a small tomato and tasted it

I was very satisfied, and simply bought half a bag

"The local tomatoes are sent close,

So fresh and delicious. ”

According to the stall owner, the current price of local tomatoes in Shanghai is 16 yuan a catty, which is slightly more expensive than the 10 yuan a catty of Hainan tomatoes, but the sales are very good, and they can sell nearly 100 catties a day. This is because local tomatoes are sweeter and more juicy, making them more popular with the elderly and children. "The characteristics of strings of red are that they have a lot of water, thin skin, soft and glutinous and sweet, and relatively speaking, the flesh of Hainan tomatoes is more crisp and has a sour taste. ”

The skin is thin and easy to tear, and the flesh is delicate

The juice is rich, sweet and delicious

Therefore, it is welcomed by the public

It can sell 50-60 catties a day

At present, the price is 28 yuan a catty

It is much cheaper than the "first price" in early spring of previous years

"The prices of many fruits this year are lower than in previous years, and loquat is very representative. At this time in previous years, loquat was often sold for more than 38 yuan a catty, but this year it was only 28 yuan. The stall owner said, "The output has increased, the wholesale price has become cheaper, and we have naturally sold cheaper." "However, at the moment, loquat has only been on the market for about two weeks, and the price is still at a high level this year. The stall owner expects that the price of loquat will also decline after the large number of listings in May.

In addition, as the climate warms

Many stalls will also have Hainan watermelons

Put it in a prominent position

8424 watermelons produced in Nanhui
